Traveler reviews
The experience
You pick the length of your rental, anywhere from 2 to 6 hours, and the crew does the rest. The captain navigates the channels of Nichupté Bay while you and up to seven others settle in. Bottled water and ice come standard. Snorkeling equipment is there if you want to get in the water, and the crew handles the setup. If you bring your own food and drinks, they'll serve them. If you want catering arranged, you can request it when you book, or you can bring what you prefer and they'll keep it cold and ready.
The crew stays attentive to safety and comfort throughout. They help anyone who wants to snorkel, keep an eye on the group, and manage the details so you don't have to think about them. You can stream your own music over Bluetooth, so the soundtrack is yours. Hotel pickup is optional and costs extra. The boat itself is wheelchair accessible, and infants can ride on an adult's lap or in a stroller if you need that.
Rentals are customized to what your group wants to do. Whether you're marking a special date, taking a first afternoon on the water, or just spending a few hours away from the beach, the reservations team stays in touch before your departure to confirm what you need. The yacht comes with a captain and crew as part of the rental: no separate guide fee, no surprises on the day.
